Abstrakt: | Cervical cancer, the fourth most frequent women cancer worldwide, is mostly (about 99%) associated with human papillomavirus (HPV). Despite availability of three effective prophylactic vaccines for more than one decade and some other preventive measures, it is still the fourth cause of cancer death among women globally. Thus, development of therapeutic vaccines seems essential, which has been vastly studied using different vaccine platforms. Even with very wide efforts during the past years, no therapeutic vaccine has been approved yet, which might be partly due to the complex events and interactions taken place in the tumor microenvironment. On the other hand, immunotherapy has opened its way into the management plans of some cancers. The recent approval of pembrolizumab for the treatment of metastatic/recurrent cervical cancer brings new hopes to the management of this disease, while some other immunotherapeutic approaches are also under investigation either alone or in combination with vaccines. Here, following a summary about HPV and its pathogenesis, cervical cancer therapeutic vaccines would be reviewed. Cell-based vaccines as well as immunomodulation and other modalities used along with vaccines would be also discussed. Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest No conflict of interests is declared.
